The operating time of the mouse powered by replaceable elements (see "Power") on one set of batteries.
The operating time in this case is quite approximate: it is indicated for a certain average mode of use. The actual battery life may turn out to be either less or more than the claimed one, depending on the specifics of the application; in addition, the quality of a particular brand of batteries greatly affects the operating time. Nevertheless, this is a fairly reliable indicator, it is quite possible to evaluate different models and compare them with each other: the difference in the claimed operating time is usually quite consistent with the difference in real battery life when using batteries of similar quality.
It is worth saying that modern battery-powered mice have pretty solid battery life, measured in months; in the most "long-playing" models, the operating time is about 36 months (that is, 3 years).
The total weight of the mouse. For models with a wired connection, usually, it is indicated without cable, and for devices with weight adjustment (see above) — without weights.
This parameter is important primarily for professional gaming applications, although it is often relevant for ordinary users. Theoretically, less weight promotes speed and reduces fatigue. At the same time, in fact, much depends on the personal habits and preferences of the user: a mouse that is too light may “not be felt in the hands” and not give familiar feedback. Therefore, although most mice have a lower weight limit of
60 – 80 g, however, even among professional gaming models there are much more massive devices —
120 – 140 g or
more. The lightest variety of "rodents" is laptop (see "In the direction"), among them devices come across and
less than 60 g.
Also note that the weight to some extent depends on the size and “tricked out” of the device, but there is no unambiguous dependence here: models similar in size and functionality can differ markedly in weight.
